Courage on the Catwalk ® The Reunion Show
Celebrating 30 years of impact through one unforgettable reunion
One night, one moment, one walk
For one night only, models who have graced the Courage stage over the last 14 years will step back onto the catwalk for a one-off special event to celebrate 30 years of Friends of ANCHOR.
We couldn't let this milestone celebration pass us by without recognising the role that these events have played in the charity's history, raising more than £1.7 million for Friends of ANCHOR and supporting hundreds of people to rebuild confidence following or during treatment.
Time and time again, we hear our alumni family how much they would love the chance to step back onto the catwalk and experience that incredible feeling all over again. Well, places everyone...it's happening!

What to expect
For one year only, Courage on the Catwalk will take a special format celebrating not only the remarkable people who have taken part over the years, but also the progress that has been made for cancer and haematology treatment and care across the north-east.
Guests can look forward to a delicious dinner, next-level live entertainment, a carefully selected fashion line-up from some of the region's favourite retailers, and a room bursting with love, cameraderie and joy.
Attendees can also look forward to a special performance from the Friends of ANCHOR alumni choir, led by well-known local musical director Laura Pike. 64 alumni models have stepped forward to lend their voice for a special performance at each one of the shows across event weekend.
Since 2013, 486 people have courageously stepped forward to be a part of both Courage on the Catwalk and Brave. Each person who has stepped onto the catwalk is considered part of the model alumni family, even those who are sadly no longer with us. Across all four shows, there will be a moment to remember and honour each model who has passed away.
